Ca2+ signals in neurons use specific temporal and spatial patterns to encode unambiguous information about crucial cellular functions. To understand the molecular basis for initiation and propagation of inositol ...

We measured the concentration dependence of the ability of rats to identify odorants and
compared these results with the calcium signals in the nerve terminals of the olfactory receptor
neurons. Odorant identification ...

The time at which the N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF) acts during
synaptic vesicle trafficking was identified by time-controlled perturbation of NSF
function with a photo-activatable inhibitory peptide. Photolysis ...

Synapsins are a family of neuron-specific phosphoproteins that regulate neurotransmitter release by associating with synaptic vesicles. Synapsins consist of a series of conserved and variable structural domains of unknown ...

In many neurodegenerative disorders that lead to memory loss and dementia, the brain pathology responsible for neuronal loss is marked by accumulations of proteins in the form of extracellular plaques and intracellular ...
